Zeldor, I didn't take into account several things that should significantly change Lanka playstyle compared to vanilla. In particular, I lost too many thugs which are not so strong with Shishis and bells all over the place. In fact, the better strategy was to cut all that CT raiding and just spam SD like crazy with those Raksharajas, they are really cool when massed (in fact, in my tests it's the only thing that kills ELs, you somehow didn't give them LR items, so they kill them really fast.) And all the rest was the consequences of loosing too many thugs/items in the beginning, since I never was able to create some critical mass of them to finally deal with Sau. I was also lucky with sites, in fact I still have 40 blood and 20 alt sites, but that doesn't change a thing now.
And the conquering of water was the key to your success I think. Missed that part too.
